Tips for choosing a mulcher for agriculture and field maintenance
To choose the most suitable crop residue shredder (mulcher) to increase productivity and contribute to sustainable farming, we recommend taking the following aspects into account:
Choose the mulcher category according to your farm work:
- Front mulchers - Suitable for use in alleys, farms and gardens where greater precision is required. Can be used in conjunction with rear mulchers to cover a larger area at once.
- Rear mulchers - versatile and reliable solutions for stubble, pasture, grassland and catch crops. The perfect choice for both small and large farms.
- Front-rear mulchers - provides maximum flexibility and allows you to quickly cultivate large areas for productive post-harvest work.
- Rear-side mulchers - suitable for working in verges, ditches or uneven fields. Particularly useful for farms with challenging terrain.
- Trailed mulchers - a high-performance solution for large crop farms and service providers when large areas need to be mulched quickly and efficiently.
- Mulchers with seed drill - allows mulching of crop residues and immediate sowing of intercrops or greening crops in one pass. This is a particularly efficient solution for medium and large farms.
- Mulchers with spraying equipment - for farms that want to apply micro-organisms or bio-fertilisers simultaneously. Particularly relevant for organic and regenerative farms.
Once you know which category of mulcher you need, take note of:
- Tractor power. Choose the mulcher that matches your tractor's horsepower and suspension capabilities.
- Working width. Choose narrower models for smaller fields and wider models for larger areas to save time.
- Mulching quality. Muthing mulchers feature patented DuraX hammer and Shark fin shredding belt technology, which delivers ultra-fine and fast-decomposing mulch - important for soil fertility and weed control.
- Additional features. The possibility of combining with a drill or spraying equipment increases work efficiency.
- Relief features. If your fields are hilly or have ditches, choose models with a copy system or side lift.
- Convenient maintenance. All Muthing mulchers are designed for durability and easy maintenance, so you save time and costs on your farm.
